Death Grip is missing minimum range.
In before Death Grip used to have 5 yard range to make it work. In 3.3.3 this range has been changed to 8 yards and "Target is too close" error has been implemented.
Proof:

http://www.mmo-champion.com/threads/704 ... ge-is-live -as the title says, thread was made after patch release, in 2010-03-28 and the date of patch is 2010-03-23
Here is my trying to DG a paladin in front of, but right outside my melee range, notice the "target is to close"
What the hell? I though that change was not supposed to go live, yet on PvP targets me and my friend DK seems to have a minimum ~8yard range on deathgrip, or is it some kind of bug..
I somehow think the range is more now then before, since I never faced the "Target is to close" issue before the patch
About PTR case. The change was reverted because they have changed both PvP and PvE aspects of DG which was huge nerf for tanks and people were butthurt about it. That change was reverted indeed. Then came out on live servers as a only PvP change.
Death Grip now has a 8 yards minimum range

Now video proofs:

The video is from 3.3.2(or earlier) as it was released in 09-11-04 and 3.3.3 patch had place in 2010-03-23
In the 2:20 guy wants to grip the cast and while walking away spam death grip, obviously DG didn't work for a first few tries.
The minimum range is noticeable.
Time for actual video:

Here guy uses his death grip in melee range, which cause the new error("Target is too close") and DG doesn't work ofcourse.
And another video for those who thinks that it's not enough already...
